Racers,

We have talked to the powers that be and changed the name of the VooDoo Shootout to the The 2011 World Gas Championships November 18th-20th. This will be the biggest baddest race of the year and is the only race in the country where you get the chance to leave with a trophy that says World Champion. This race is already known for having the fastest racers in the country showing up to get it on with the best of the best. Now this is also the race that crowns World Champions and gives bragging rights to the fastest racers in the world for the following year. If you are looking for a race that has everything this is the one you have been looking for. People that attend this race every year say that they will never miss it. The competition is fierce and the fun never ends.

Here is just a small list of reasons to head south and enjoy some southern hospitality:

** Awesome location just 35 minutes from New Orleans and the French Quarter (Casinos, World class restaurants, tourist attractions, French Market Etc.) Plantation homes just minutes away from the pond.
** Awesome Weather in November

**Large Driver stand with great view of the pond and course.
**Large Digital clock on the water.
**Plenty of nice hotels less then 10 minutes from the pond.

We will have our normal Jambalaya Feast on Friday Night after racing is over and on Saturday we will have a Seafood Boil followed by the Rock and Soul band. Fat Boys Catering will also be on location each day cooking New Orleans style food, seafood and normal concession items.

Winning a few heats at your local pond does not count. If you think you have what it takes then stop posting videos and racing your keyboard here on Jim's and get to this race.
